<br />any structure of a permanent nature on the Property. It is expressly understood and
<br />agreed that the City is under no obligation to maintain or repair the treatment measure(s)

<br />9. Reimbursement of the City Expenditures. In the event the City, pursuant to this
<br />Agreement, performs work of any nature (direct or indirect), including any reinspections

<br />of said work for labor, use of equipment, supplies, materials, and the like, the Property
<br />Owner shall reimburse the City demand within thirty (30) days of receipt thereof for the
<br />costs incurred by the City hereunder. If these costs are not paid within the prescribed
<br />time period, the City may assess the Property Owner the cost of the work, both direct and
<br />indirect, and applicable penalties. Said assessment shall be a lien against the Property or
<br />may be placed on the property tax bill and collected as ordinary taxes by the City. The
<br />actions described in this section are in addition to, and not in-lieu-of, any and all legal

<br />be asserted against the City that are alleged or proven to result or arise from the
<br />construction, presence, existence or maintenance of the treatment measure(s) by the
<br />Property Owner or the City. In the event a claim is asserted against the City, its authorized
<br />agents, officers, officials or employees, the City shall promptly notify the Property Owner

<br />any judgment or claims against the City, its authorized agents, officers, officials or
<br />employees shall be allowed, the Property Owner shall pay for all costs and expenses in
<br />connection herewith. This section shall not apply to any claims, demands, suits, damages,
<br />liabilities, losses, accidents, casualties, occurrences, claims and payments, including
<br />attorney fees claimed which arise due solely to the negligence or willful misconduct of the
